Hello,
You can switch the ports the exchange 5.5 is using for SMTP and avoid
having to change the MX records. Look up:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;173903
This allows you to use GFI Mail essentials on port 25. You then have to
configure mail essentials to use the new port that you decided on for
exchange.

Subject: [exchangelist] Question on MX Records
http://www.MSExchange.org/
Hi All,
I'm setting up GFI Mail Essentials for use with our Exchange 5.5 server.
This cannot be on the same server unless you're using Exchange 2000, so
i'm installing it on our Web Server machine (I don't have the budget to
put up a new server, and this should serve the purpose).
Our DNS's MX record currently points to mail.tcr-ny.com (the domain is
tcr-ny.com)
I guess I need to change that to the web server (and leave
mail.tcr-ny.com as the fallback), right? Would I have the entry just
read something like this:
tcr-ny.com mail exchanger = 10 www.tcr-ny.com
tcr-ny.com mail exchanger = 20 mail.tcr-ny.com
??
Anyone have any help on this? I'm new to messing with MX records!
Thanks,
